Restore "Songs of Faith and Praise" Dear Lord....


Yesterday in chapel the classic song "Restore my Soul" was sung. The page number was given. I opened my usually handy "Songs of Faith and Praise" to page number called, but it was not "Restore my Soul". I thought I had heard the number incorrectly. I look over a friends shoulder to see that I was not mistaken. I was really confused for a moment, then I looked at the other book attached to the pew infront of me to see that this book had "Restore my Soul". By this point I was really confused. I showed my friend Bob Turner who was sitting beside me. We were in awe of the discrepency. After chapel we noticed that the books were different editions. That explains the discrepency, but it does not explain why "Restore my Soul" is not included in the new edition. How could such an inspiring classic be left out? I call for the next edition to restore the classic.
